Hi all thanks adding me. I have just bought a 2005 1.2 8v punto. The guy I bought it from delivered it to me so I couldn't check the water oil showed on dip stick. But after it sitting over night I checked oil and water, turns ou none of either.
Put a pint of oil in and it shows on the dip stick. Topped up the water and went to work. Started it after work and got the dreaded gurgling from the heater matrix. Popped the oil cap and found creamy oil. I'm guessing the head is gone. So what your thoughts? Are the blocks prone to crack or do they just warp? Would it be easier just to pickup a second had engine?
